Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Faced with Qi Yan's mockery, Warfarin gritted his teeth and silently endured it.

I'll let you dance for a few more days. Once Logos releases the video, it'll be my turn to laugh!

Thinking of this, Warfarin felt a surge of secret pleasure.

Qi Yan and the doctor exchanged a glance, both wondering what kind of mental victory Warfarin had used.

Qi Yan exerted a slight force with his mouth, crushed his younger sister's ice crystal, and swallowed it:

"Speaking of which, Rhodes Island should be heading to Kazimierz by now."

"You directionally challenged idiot, we've already entered the border of Kazimierz," the doctor mocked. "I never expected that a dignified white dog like you would be so directionally challenged. We were supposed to go to Wolumond, but the dog-catching team has already arrived, and you, your master dog, are still lost outside."

I even went on a trip to Iberia and came back, but you haven't even arrived yet.

"Damn it, who betrayed the organization's secrets?" Qi Yan was furious on the spot.

However, anger comes quickly and goes even faster.

Qi Yan quickly noticed the information revealed in the doctor's words, and he couldn't help but ask curiously:

What are you going to Iberia for at this time?

It's a desolate place now; you can't find a single hair in it.

"That's because you're too stupid!" The Doctor proudly raised his chin. "I picked up several feathers from a certain Liberian junior judge in Iberia, grayish-white, super beautiful!"

Qi Yan's expression changed on the spot:

"Quick, give me a few. Summer is already over, and I still haven't fulfilled my plan to use a feather fan."

"You brute, what do you want a feather fan for?" the doctor yelled. "If you ask me, you should give me all the feathers, so I can hold this feather fan and when I see Theresis, I can wave it around and wipe out his Sarkaz army. What a blast!"

Qi Yan spat in the doctor's face from a distance and retorted:

"Teacher Da Te is one of the top-tier experts in this land, below even the gods. If you dare to act recklessly in front of him, be careful you don't get slashed back into your stone coffin."

Even Kal'tsit couldn't save you; she got cleaved into hero fragments in the process!

"Holy crap, Theresis is that strong?" the doctor exclaimed in surprise.

Qi Yan had a look on his face that said, "I, Qi Xiaobai, never lie."

Upon seeing this, the doctor immediately changed his tune:

"I suddenly realized that I don't have any grudges against Theresis. There's no need for fighting or anything like that. It's really unnecessary. It would be better to sit down and talk things out calmly."

"Pah, coward!" x2

Qi Yan and Hua Falin said in unison.

Having finally managed to get a word in edgewise, Warfarin pressed her advantage, asking:

"Qi Yan, a lot has happened while you were away from Rhodes Island. For example, when the Doctor returned from Iberia, he was followed by a perverted woman!"

"What?! The Doctor was molested?" Qi Yan was so shocked that his tail stood on end.

"You illiterate person who didn't even finish high school, you're stalking, stalking!"

The doctor was so angry that his face turned red, and he swung himself up and kicked Qi Yan.

Unfortunately, Qi Yan's golden eyes hadn't faded yet, and he easily twisted the Doctor's flying kick, casually bumping the Doctor into Warfarin.

Warfarin, who was watching the show from the sidelines, was suddenly kicked and angrily stretched her neck to bite the doctor's hood.

The two of them made a fuss, which diverted Qi Yan's attention and made her temporarily forget about the fact that the doctor was being followed.

The doctor broke free from Warfarin's mouth, and as he swung back, he didn't forget to give her another kick.

Then the doctor swung back to Qi Yan's side and took the initiative to say:

"Let's talk about Kazimierz. I've taken care of the intelligence and plans, but I still can't help but worry about Nearl's safety."

Qi Yan seemed completely unconcerned about this:

"You're more worried about whether Hibiscus will be cooking in the kitchen tonight than about Lin Guang."

"I'm worried about that too, since we're not working in a single thread."

The doctor couldn't help but shudder when he heard the words "hibiscus" and "kitchen" mentioned together.

Even Qi Yan himself couldn't help but shudder a couple of times, regretting his jinxed words.

He spat twice into the air, then got back to the main topic:

"Returning from Linguang to Kazimierz may seem dangerous, but it is actually extremely safe."

You have absolutely no idea what the word 'Nearlight' means in Kazimierz.

The professor tilted his head, puzzled, and asked:

“I understand the code name Nearl. Her real name is Margaret Nearl. Nearl is her family name. Could this family be some incredibly wealthy family in Kazimierz?”

"No, the Lin Guang family is so poor they've had to sell their furniture." Qi Yan grinned.

PhD:"……"

After making a joke, Qi Yan finally got down to business:

"The Nearl family is a legend in Kazimierz. They once produced a golden Pegasus who could be said to have saved the country of Kazimierz."

Of course, it is undeniable that the Nearl family is now in decline, and the Golden Pegasus has become a legend.

But in reality, that was just a facade; the Lin Guang family had simply chosen to remain silent in the face of suppression from the Kazimierz Commercial Association.

At this point, a hint of a smile flashed in Qi Yan's eyes as he continued:

"In the Lin Guang family, there is a golden pegasus who has endured hardship for ten years to accumulate three months of legal leave."

If something happens to Nearl after she returns, the entire leadership of Kazimierz will be purged within three months!

The doctor and Warfarin both widened their eyes, sensing an overwhelming aura emanating from Qi Yan's brief and concise words.

"Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg."

Qi Yan was very satisfied with their reactions, and continued, shaking his head:

"You know Silver Spear Pegasus, right? It was this group of guys who surrounded and beat up General Helag during the Kau War. If it weren't for Patriot leading the Shield Guards through the blizzard and carving a bloody path, we wouldn't have seen the general."

"You mean, Silver Spear Pegasus also has connections with the Nearl family?" the professor probed.

"It's more than just having a relationship," Qi Yan chuckled. "The moment Lin Guang embarked on his return journey, a powerful figure contacted the Kazimierz border and ordered an entire Silver Spear Pegasus cavalry to make a thousand-mile raid towards the Great Knight's territory!"

Forty silver-spear steeds—anyone who dares to lay a finger on Lin Guang will face the wrath of a true national defense-grade army!

(No way, I can't bear to part with a little money! I must get my perfect attendance bonus this month!)

Chapter 390 Xuan Tie's Position: This Wuzhou Alliance is doomed.

The bridge was quiet, with only the constant whistling of the wind.

The three leaders on the Rhodes Island bridge remained silent, with the Doctor and Warfarin trying to process the news revealed by Qi Yan.

Qi Lin, however, remained expressionless, staring intently at Qi Yan as if trying to make up for all the missed meetings they had during this period.

After a long pause, Warfarin licked her lips and gave a dry laugh:

"Suddenly I feel like there's no point in us going to Kazimierz. This is clearly Nearl's home turf. Don't you know the stories and novels from Yan Country?"

The three-year period has come to an end. We respectfully welcome the Dragon King's return to Wuhu!

The doctor didn't seem so optimistic.

His thinking went much deeper than Warfarin's.

After a moment's thought, the professor raised his objection:

"The cards they've dealt are certainly impressive, but as far as I know, the Kazimierz Business Federation employs a group of assassins called the Unarmored Alliance."

Those guys are not to be underestimated; they specialize in assassinations. Whether it's the golden pegasus Qi Yan mentioned or the silver-spear pegasus, they're just a deterrent, only unleashing their full power after something really happens to Lin Guang.

"Doctor, you're overthinking it," Warfarin said nonchalantly. "Nearlight isn't you; she's very powerful, and Shining Nightingale is there too..."

Okay, Nightingale isn't exactly a great fighter, but Nearl and Shining alone are enough to handle 90% of crises, and the remaining 10% should be enough to hold out until reinforcements arrive.

The doctor slowly shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"The Unarmored Alliance is no ordinary assassin organization. Its leadership is divided into three levels, with the lowest rank, Platinum, already reserved for undisputed powerhouses..."

The doctor had only spoken halfway when Qi Yan suddenly burst out laughing, for some unknown reason.

Seeing the look on the doctor's and Warfarin's faces, Qi Yan shook his head repeatedly:

"It's alright, it's alright, you can continue. I was just thinking about something happy. Platinum is indeed quite strong, but there's no need to worry about her for now."

The doctor paused for a moment, knowing that Qi Yan's seemingly omniscient and omnipotent abilities were at work again.

He skipped over platinum and continued:

"The next level up, the Azure Gold Masters, consists of two individuals. It is said that the selection criteria for Azure Gold Masters is the ability to assassinate anyone in Kazimierz. If they were to go all out..."

As the doctor was speaking, Qi Yan burst into laughter again.

PhD:"……"

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I just remembered something happy." Qi Yan suppressed a laugh and comforted him. "Go on, Qingjin's strength is indeed beyond doubt. His 'full-force' attack is quite threatening."

Interrupted twice in a row, the professor was so angry that he kicked his legs wildly in the air.

After venting for a moment, the doctor gritted his teeth and continued explaining his intelligence:

"The highest-ranking Xuan Tie position in the Wuzhou Alliance consists of three people. It is said that the Xuan Tie position has never been changed since the establishment of the Wuzhou Alliance, and no one knows exactly how strong the Xuan Tie position is."

Everyone who witnessed his skills is dead.

At this point, the doctor paused to look at Qi Yan, and breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that the guy had finally stopped causing trouble.

He looked intently at the two of them and solemnly said:

"Near Light has a rather stubborn personality. She believes that the current system in Kazimierz is corrupt, and that the Business Federation controls the economic lifeline of Kazimierz, turning the promotion of knights into a commodity."

Ah, knighthood and competition, two completely unrelated things, have now been cobbled together by the Merchants' Guild in Kazimierz. Any true knight would be outraged, and so would Nearl.

Therefore, she participated in the knightly tournament without joining any faction of the Commercial Union, and forcefully won the championship as an individual knight, severely humiliating the Commercial Union. It was precisely because of this that she was retaliated against and forced to leave Kazimierz.

Qi Yan nodded repeatedly from the side.

As expected of a doctor, his ability to collect and analyze intelligence is extremely strong. Even without having personally experienced that period, he can piece together the whole story from fragmented information.

"In other words, now that Nearl has returned to Kazimierz, it is equivalent to re-entering the territory of the Business Federation."

The doctor was certain: "She will definitely participate in the Knights' Tournament again in her own name. This time, she will be subjected to a full-scale attack by the Business Federation, and the Nearl family will no longer be able to protect Nearl."

I'm worried that even the Xuan Tie Grandmaster will be drawn out. With powerhouses of that caliber, it would be too difficult for Lin Guang and Shining to withstand them.

Because of Xuan Tie Dawei's assassination methods, the two didn't even have a chance to survive until rescue.

Qi Yan burst out laughing again.

He quickly explained, "I remembered something happy."

"You've gone too far, I've put up with you for so long!"

The doctor finally lost his temper, kicking his legs hard in mid-air and yelling, "You bastard, you've been laughing at me the whole time!"

Warfarin, who had been tense up from the doctor's analysis, immediately felt her tension dissipate upon hearing Qi Yan's laughter.

After all, Qi Yan wasn't in a hurry, which meant there was absolutely no problem.

Qi Yan tried hard to suppress her laughter and tried to calm the frantic doctor down:

"Doctor, I've been rigorously trained not to laugh, no matter how funny it is... unless I can't help it, hahaha."

Seeing that the doctor was about to start shaking and kicking himself after being provoked, Qi Yan quickly changed his tune:

"Actually, you're right. Xuan Tie wanted to kill Lin Guang and the other two, and they were indeed powerless to resist, but there's a premise to this."

That is, Xuan Tie needs someone to provide precise coordinates to make a move. This is usually Qing Jin's responsibility, but... right now, Qing Jin's mind is full of thoughts about running away with his bucket. He is absolutely unwilling to cause trouble for himself at this time.

Even if we take a step back and assume the worst, there's still a bounty hunter roaming around Kazimierz; he's a professional firefighter, appearing wherever there's danger.

PhD:"……"

The professor was furious at that moment.

Despite all the hard work he put into gathering intelligence, he still couldn't compete with Qi Yan. In the end, Qi Yan had to fill in the gaps in his knowledge.
